The Traffic Page

2) View key - Use View to control the orientation of the map and
sensor data displayed on the EX500/EX600. EX500/EX600 traffic
and weather symbols are positioned relative to the aircraft
symbol nose.
3) Traffic Advisory - When a Traffic Advisory (TA) is reported from
the traffic sensor, the traffic symbol of the threat aircraft turns
yellow, and the EX500/EX600 displays a traffic alert message in
the message bar (see Figure 3.1) to help focus your attention
where it is needed.
When you acknowledge this message, the EX500/EX600
displays a dedicated Traffic page (see Figure 3.2) to allow you to
identify the threat and take appropriate action. The TA message
is removed automatically when the threat is reduced or the target
aircraft is no longer present.
3.2 The Traffic Page
The Traffic page is a specially configured Map page that is displayed
only when you acknowledge (by pressing ACK) a Traffic Alert (TA)
message. This page displays the following:
● View - With either Center View or North up View selected on the
Map page, acknowledging a traffic alert opens a dedicated traffic
page with a complete circular range ring. With Forward View
selected on the Map page, acknowledging a traffic alert opens a
dedicated traffic page with an Arc range ring.
● Range - 5 NM
● Base Map - No terrain or political boundaries
● Declutter - No symbol or airspace depictions
● Lightning - Not displayed
● Flight Plan - Displayed
● Datalink Weather - Not displayed
● Wx Reports - Not displayed
The EX500/EX600 displays up to five (5) non-bearing intruders below
the airplane symbol, that is, traffic threats reported by the traffic
sensor but without valid bearing. This serves as an alert that there is
traffic, but its exact location cannot be determined.
